At Sea heading to Greenland

At Sea heading toward Greenland -July 30, 2015

The cruise has been very smooth so far. I can hardly tell that the ship is in open water.

After eating breakfast, I attended a lecture on Greenland and the port of Qaqortoq. It was  very interesting.

I participate in the Viking Games on the sea days.  I get points for how well I do. (In my case, I usually get the minimum points.  Today’s game was to roll a bocce ball, a tennis ball, a volleyball, and a golf ball at 5 hula hoops. You got points for getting the balls into the hoops.  Out of a possible 20 points, I got 4 points.

I treated myself to a Pinnacle Grill  lunch.  A couple that I  met a few days ago invited me to sit with them.   It was a very pleasant lunch.

I went to a  wine tasting event at 2pm.  It was all about wine blends. Very interesting and very good wines.

Today at noon our clocks and watches got moved ahead another 1/2 hour.   Now we are 2 hours ahead of EDT.

Tonight is our 2nd Gala night.    I am off to the Thermal Suite before dressing for dinner.

Tomorrow I hope to go out on a boat to the ice cap.
